Hi all, time to start a build thread....this is my first attempt at a TD, but not the first thing I have built or modified.
My TD is kinda my own design, with most of the ideas for it coming from this great site. It is a 4x8 built as simple and as cheaply as possible.....
The goal is to tow it behind my classic/hot rod. I love road trips.
So I started with some 2" box tube and light angle and whipped up a frame. It is 52"x95". The axle is from A Chrysler minivan(rear).
I chose this axle because it has much better bearings and seals than the cheapie trailer ones, and the price was right. 5x4.5 wheel bolt pattern also.
The springs and shackles are from a model A Ford(2 front springs). I removed some leafs and added poly liner for smoother action. Also installed shocks.
Title and license is pretty simple here in MT, so that is done as well.
